InBio Ltd.___________________________________ Akadeemia tee 21 • Tallinn • 12680 Estonia • www.inbio.ee • e-mail: info@inbio.ee • Reg.nr.:10565826 Background for product development • Cancer is the second most common cause of death in the developed world • The limits of usefulness are being approached for conventional therapies and further advances will require principally new approaches • The foreseen products of our company areprototypes of new anti-cancer drugs that are characterised by: • -high degree of selectivity • -efficient delivery
InBio Ltd.___________________________________ Akadeemia tee 21 • Tallinn • 12680 Estonia • www.inbio.ee • e-mail: info@inbio.ee • Reg.nr.:10565826 What is antibody? • Antibodies are made by a class of white blood cells • They are naturally present in the blood • Biological function is to perform defence functions • Each antigen causes the formation of a specific antibody • Recombinant DNA technology allows the engineer antibodies • It is possible to produce complete antibodiesin cell culture systems.
InBio Ltd.___________________________________ Akadeemia tee 21 • Tallinn • 12680 Estonia • www.inbio.ee • e-mail: info@inbio.ee • Reg.nr.:10565826 Reasons to use antibodies in drug development • Can be rationally designed and easily made • Can be engineered to add fragmenmts that enhance their therapeutic potential • Have no intrinsic toxicity as based on the natural molecules • Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)will not fail at the drug safety testing (phase I clinical trial stages) • Technology is now advanced enough for therapeutic applications of mAbs
InBio Ltd.___________________________________ Akadeemia tee 21 • Tallinn • 12680 Estonia • www.inbio.ee • e-mail: info@inbio.ee • Reg.nr.:10565826 What is new in our technology ? • Our technology combines two different platforms: • Monoclonal antibodies against cancer-specific antigens • Modification of antibody sequence to make these mAbs membrane permeable • Such approach helps to utilise intracellular cancer-specific targets that can not be usually reached • Focus on skin cancer, first targets are GLI proteins
InBio Ltd.___________________________________ Akadeemia tee 21 • Tallinn • 12680 Estonia • www.inbio.ee • e-mail: info@inbio.ee • Reg.nr.:10565826 What are GLI proteins? • GLI proteins are gene switches • GLI proteins are involved in development and lead cells to divide • Abnormal activation of GLI proteins lead to cancer • GLI proteins represent an attractive target for anticancer drug development
